Named one of New York Times Top-20 Cookbooks of 2006. Have you ever
wanted to host a full evening of Indian food, culture, and music?
How about preparing a traditional Balinese banquet? Or take a trip
to Cairo and enjoy an Egyptian feast? The Ethnomusicologists'
Cookbook takes you around the world on a culinary journey that is
also a cultural and social odyssey. Many cookbooks offer a snapshot
of individual recipes from different parts of the world, but do
nothing to tell the reader how different foods are presented
together, or how to relate these foods to other cultural practices.
For years, ethnomusicologists have visited the four corners of the
earth to collect the music and culture of native peoples, from
Africa to the Azores, from Zanzibar to New Zealand. Along the way,
they've observed how music is an integral part of social
interaction, particularly when it's time for a lavish banquet or
celebration. Foodways and cultural expression are not separate;
this book emphasizes this connection through offering over
thirty-five complete meals, from appetizers to entrees to side
dishes to desserts and drinks. A list of recommended CDs fills out
the culinary experience, along with hints on how to present each
dish and to organize the overall meal. The Ethnomusicologists'
Cookbook combines scholarship with a unique and fun approach to the
study of the world's foods, musics, and cultures. More than just a
cookbook, it is an excellent companion for anyone embarking on a
cultural-culinary journey.
